  • antbates1991 Anthony Bates (@antbates1991) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    New tactics from Virgin Media, ring up to cancel, they say they can't find your account and then put the phone down. 🖕🖕

  • bigbrawbill Lord William Niven (@bigbrawbill) reported from Ilkeston, England

    So @virginmedia has been going off with technical faults from yesterday, My @EE is also been going off signal wise from yesterday is anyone else not think this is eerie and so so weird that both going down at the same time. Come on conspiracy theories welcome.

  • MatthewWalne Matthew Walne (@MatthewWalne) reported from Thurcaston, England

    @virginmedia Home phone. Had online chat but can never get through on the phone. Raised it on twitter many times but no one seems bothered.

  • gaz_smith123 Gareth Smith (@gaz_smith123) reported from Ilkeston, England

    Area 30 has been having issues for a week now but @virginmedia still won’t admit there’s an issue - according to them everything is just fine & working perfectly! #virginmediadown #virginmedia #ilkeston #area30

  • neilmjohnson72 Neil Johnson (@neilmjohnson72) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia You need to sort your customer service out, it is absolutely disgraceful. Your technical team are ignorant and hang calls up without situation. You are getting dumped!

  • dawesje James Dawes (@dawesje) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia just like to say what a load of rubbish your service is! And I’m not even with you

  • xCarrie82x Carrie (@xCarrie82x) reported from Kimberley, England

    @virginmedia Broadband and smart tv still up and down!! Wouldn’t mind but worked all day and just wanted to catch up online and chill watching TV! #virginmediadown #lockdown #NHSworkers

  • antbates1991 Anthony Bates (@antbates1991) reported from Burton upon Trent, England

    @virginmedia It's for Virgin Media. Everytime I ring up to try and change something no one over the phone can ever find my account and because of this no one can help me. I want to cancel my package because the offer I'm on expires next month and the services are not worth £84.

  • superjayslim jamie ford (@superjayslim) reported from Coalville, England

    @ash_tunstall @virginmedia Sky working fine. Streaming shit loads!

  • BernardThresher Bernard Thresher (@BernardThresher) reported

    @virginmedia 90 minutes though. An hour and a half? Put yourself in the customers shoes...no you can't, you're a robot. Also, I can't tell you the outcome of the 'call' as I was told to go to whatsapp I know what the outcome is going to be however, one lost customer and lots of negative press

  • Dawn18629990 Dawn (@Dawn18629990) reported

    @virginmedia it’s gone down again why don’t you do do something about it we getting really fed up with now they was some supposed to came this afternoon but you cancelled it told you it keeps happening we are not happy with the service at all

  • BlueWreckingCrw The Rt. Hon Sir John of the Shires (@BlueWreckingCrw) reported

    @virginmedia Yep, and got a text.saying to follow the restart/reset procedures.. It's a hardware issue rather than a connection issue

  • charo_uk Charo (@charo_uk) reported

    @virginmedia Sure I can expand on this,the internet connection hasn’t been great in the last year and when I tried to call to cancel my contract I spent 1,5hr on the phone,spoke to 4 people and the last one hanged up on me saying they had issues and will call me back in 20min,never heard back

  • andyfalconer2 Andy Falconer (@andyfalconer2) reported

    @virginmedia service down again...work from home, losing money...rubbish service

  • InfoBizmobile bizmobile (@InfoBizmobile) reported

    @virginmedia The order was cancelled. Phone never delivered. Email from VM tells me it is cancelled. I then get a letter telling me I am in arrears for something I have never received. I would have expected a call back if cut off.

  • versarchie5 Archie Geddes (@versarchie5) reported

    @virginmedia my sons phone is not letting him call or send messages and it’s beginning to really annoy me and him, to the point I want to cancel virgin mobile and move to EE. He is unable to ring me and I can’t contact him. This is not acceptable.

  • jcbell88 Jenny Bell (@jcbell88) reported

    @virginmedia Multiple failed appts; multiple no-shows to fix the problem; inability to verbally speak to anyone; inability to verbally speak to anyone who has any clue what's going on; piggy-backing on my neighbour's connection for the last 8 weeks!! Latest is appt date for 4 weeks time!!

  • Scius Scius (@Scius) reported

    @virginmedia your service status website has stopped working, I get a 404 after I plug in my postcode and surname.

  • BernardThresher Bernard Thresher (@BernardThresher) reported

    @virginmedia Still nothing. Is it a lack of staff causing these excessive delays? @NTSscamsteam No service or support here from @virginmedia
